As said, actual Islamic terrorists were fought in Champions #3. As a book that is primarily aimed at smaller, more down-to-earth hero stuff rather than big threats compared to the normal comic book fare, it feels more right there. YMMV of course considering that Champions more often than not is accused of being too on-the-nose, lacking subtlety in its messages, or being too preachy.

Otherwise, Kamala's dealings with this sort topic are more of allegories and implications. Even the issue where she went to Pakistan had her fighting gangsters instead of terrorists.

Actually prefer the heroes who battle against "down to earth"problems rather then cosmic threats, tho 1 of my favorite scenes is where Captain America stands toe to toe with Thanos in Infinity War.

I wonder, how are they going to portray Kamala's reunion with her overprotective parents... I mean, she is under a curfew, but she left to join the Resistance and fight the Not-Nazis-Only-They-Are-But-Not-Really Hydra regime...

They'll just think she was captured. Her mother knows she's a superhero, remember. She confessed in Last Days.

This is pretty nifty. This definitely seems like for a younger crowd, so this is cool if it'll be educational in the right way. Plus of course, neat to have Kamala in this and have her introduced to newcomers at a young age.

By not bothering to show it. Ms. Marvel's pretty much skipped Secret Empire. It's doing an arc that's thematically similar, but not actually connected.

Sounds about right. She ought to be his custodian, especially now the royals are in outer space. But he has indeed only appeared in a few issues. I think the last time he was seen with Kamala was in IVX. I can imagine Lockjaw being one of the methods used to get the Champions together, not that that's ever been seen. The alternative is Nova flying half-way around the globe to pick up Cyclops from Madripoor where X-Men Blue is based!

Lockjaw was only sent to Kamala because Medusa wanted someone to keep an eye on her. Once his job was done, he went right back to Medusa. Being a teleporting dog, of course, he still likes to visit Kamala every now and then, but it seems like he's now just too busy with the Royals to slip away unnoticed.
